Exactly. Cut the Kumbaya cr@p. It means NOTHING and makes your business/organization look like the bunch of brainwashed sucks that you are.

Get us back to work, Mr. President! Yesterday!

Social engineering and indoctrination, pure and simple. That way, the sheep will already be primed and ready to cower in the next “crisis”.

The phrase, or a reasonable facsimile, which drives me up a tree:

“We are all in this together!”

They do, in fact, think that we are all stupid and fall for such nonsense.

I turn off anything that says “we are in this together.” We aren’t, as the Leftists have their own, very separate, agenda

Seems like everyone is in on it.

Well, not the ASPCA. They are still running the shivering sad eyed dog commercials on, at least, the Discovery Channel.

“I want pretty people with good, strong teeth pushing products...”

Pretty people???

That went out a long time ago. Social justice demands inclusion of all the types-— one ad now can have five different ethnicities and it takes quite a bit for the ad makers to circle back around to pretty people.

Yes, I am so tired of these commercials and they are everywhere. The only worse ones are that guy on TVLand.

Every time I hear someone on TV say “we’re all in this together,” I feel like smashing it.

As my job is an essential service, I am out of the house 5 days a week, working. As I drive 11 miles each way to work each day, I appreciate that there are not too many cars on the roads, though there are still idiots that think that 85 mph in a 60 mph zone is a grand idea. The line ups at grocery stores are a pain, as are the shortages of some items but it certainly isn’t GUM Department Store, circa 1975!

I consider myself blessed, as I still have a job and have guaranteed hours and hopefully, enough seniority to avoid layoff down the road. Besides, I know who is in charge and I have a relationship with Him, and that is all I truly need!

OMG!!! Yes.

Every company is advertising “oh, how caring WE are”!!!!

It is sickening.

Is someone going to buy a Subaru because their ads seem to reflect that they “care” more than does Ford or Toyota for instance? And if I am looking for a car, is that sort of message what I really care about??? Noooooooooooooooooo.

You can just see the marketing departments working nights trying to come up with some virtue-signalling tie-in to the WuFlu crisis. “Look, if we come across as more compassionate than our competitors, our study shows we’ll increase sales by up to 10 percent. So let’s get busy, people, and show how freakin’ compassionate we are Maybe something with a puppy.
Everyone loves puppies, don’t they?”

Sappy ads are for "saps".

At least these companies haven't adopted America's "new normal" (my God, such an ugly, trite phrase) motto that has replaced (hopefully only temporarily) "The land of the free and the home of the brave": "Better Safe Than Sorry".

Anything to exploit the kept ignorant. “No payments for 80 months”

I’m waiting for another “We Are The World” song. It would fit right in with the agenda.

+1000- can’t stand them- it’s idiotic- it’s propaganda is what it is- commercials telling us to continue surrendering our rights- to obey government- using hte excuse ‘We’re all in this together’ when this is turning out to be no worse- and perhaps not even as bad as, the common flu-

My politically liberal wife exclaimed how sick she is of these PSAs. On this subject, I agree with her wholeheartedly.

Try listening to classical music on YouTube and the constant interruption by Justine Beaver-types telling me to stay home and stop the spread of blah, blah, blah. All a bunch of one-hit wonders.
